Wed, 11 Sep 2013 11:11:10 +0000spudly19795324728@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>i've gone with Tomtom for years now, only problem i've had with being buggy was after i repeatedly dropped the thing! The new one i got for xmas is superb, intuitive to use, good mapping and good instructions. i think they do an option for lifetime updates of maps now too, but i imagine its not cheap.</p>
<p>Bonus also for me is i can create and upload all of our sites as POI's which makes planning far easier than hunting down postcodes.</p>
<p>I admit though, the new updating software is a bit poo...

Updates virtually every month via App Store. Haven't noticed any bugs recently.<br />
Traffic updates work very well too.

Wed, 11 Sep 2013 10:20:50 +0000FuzzyWuzzy5324504@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I've not managed to update my TomTom in the 3 years I've had it, and I've worked in IT for 20 years. Then again I dislike Garmin due to their rip-off bike GPS computers so wouldn't give them my cash either. If you've got a decent new smartphone I'd just use that and buy a dedicated mount etc.

<p>Tom Tom is very buggy, constantly sends me messages for me to update and then won't update from their web site. Tripe.

Tue, 10 Sep 2013 20:03:42 +0000takisawa25323179@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Garmin Nuvi here also. Was a godsend towing the caravan round Paris a few weeks ago.<br />
Our maps are two years old now but wasn't a problem.</p>
<p>Most towns/cities are still roughly in the same place. <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":-)" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p>wheelie on "Which Sat Nav"http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/which-sat-nav-2#post-5323074

<p>Fix your speedo, it's an MOT failure (and also illegal IIRC).

Tue, 10 Sep 2013 19:32:40 +0000kimbers5323026@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>just got a garmin nuvi 50 at halfords for 60quid very impressed so far</p>
<p>with lifetime updates I think they are 100</p>
<p>more convenient than using your phone and the speedo is quite useful too

Have a look at the speedview free app for your phone. Its a good hud on the windscreen at night too...
